CORE DEFINITION
Set up multiple layers of defense mechanisms, so that even if one layer is breached, the next layer still provides resistance.
SCAFFOLDING EFFECT
Reduce cognitive load
Redundant protection. Do not trust any single line of defense; assume each layer may fail.
Anchor fast decisions
A multi-level security system sets up multiple layers of protection according to classification/sensitivity, with each layer independently controlled. The mechanism is layered defense to prevent single-point leakage.
